"Mark is an excellent photographer. In fact he has helped trained many of our other local photographers. He works extremely well with the time line and is able to combine quality photography without keeping the bride and groom away from the reception for too long. He has a very calm and patient attitude. He is great to work with. -Beau Kramer, Kramer Entertainment Inc, www.kramerdjs.com"

Mark was very professional, and the pictures turned out beautifully! I love how he put together a slide-show to music for us to share with our family and friends.

Mark Nakamura did a beautiful job photographing our wedding, from the posed family shots to the precious candid moments. He was a calm force in a whirlwind of activity. We loved being able to share the web video of our wedding photos with our friends and family before we even returned from the honeymoon! Mark Nakamura is a master in his craft. Highly recommend him.

Mark was overall a great photographer and we were very pleased with him and his work. He was very professional and flexible to our needs. He is very confident in his work and has a very calm demeanor, which is great when everything else around you on your wedding day is crazy! One thing that stood out for us that separated Mark from other photographers is that he actually allowed for my uncle and mother's friend to shoot with him, during some of the more scenic shots, since they both have strong interests in photography. This made my uncle very happy, but also my parents and he overall left a very favorable impression. I would definitely recommend him. His prices are very reasonable too.
